Good. The first verse is perfect.
It's got what I look for in a song,
which is the wow factor.
Great job, choir.
Now, the second verse...
- But...
- But what? You can't?
Well, write it down.
Come on.
Come on, write it down.
Let's see.
THE LOW TONE CLUB
I need a break.
- The artist needs a break.
- We need to work on the second verse.
I need to be careful with every detail.
Right?
So, relax.
Tonight I'll lock myself in my room,
I'll watch some videos,
I'll do some push-ups...
Tsk.
...and I'll let the creativity flow.
Or, as my dad would put it,
"Capture your muse and make her fly."
"Make her fly"?
"Capture your muse and let her be free."
It's similar, but not the same.
Besides, that's not an excuse
for not being prepared.
- I'll have it ready for you tomorrow.
- Tomorrow is too late!
Honey, you should understand that
I pressure you for your own good.
For the good of all of us.
I say it clearly in my success manual,
"Show business won't wait for you
because if you wait in business,
there won't be a show."
I thought your brother would be injured
after he got kicked like that.
Yeah. Sure, because you know him,
but I... I'm a fan, so it scared me.
How was...
You saw, and you didn't say anything.
You gotta get in the game.
- Nice, bro.
- You saw him, Ocampo?
How was your brother's game?
You end up as the MVP of this game.
Two assists, a foul that wasn't called,
but you should have been carded for,
and to top it off,
a goal in the last minute of the game.
A very strong message
for all your fans here in Munich
and also for those watching from Colombia.
Do you want to send them a message?
Yes, thank you.
First off,
I want to thank God for our success,
and secondly, shout out to my family,
especially my little brother Romario.
This goal was for you.
Soon, you'll get to see me score again
live from the stadium.
So, are you gonna go to Europe?
I don't know, my brother wants me
to travel there every six months,
but I think it's excessive
for him to spend all that money...
You poor guy.
"Oh, my brother wants to pay for me
to travel to Europe every six months."
I'd give anything for someone
to dedicate a goal to me.
You would scream. Let's go.
Laura Fernanda Gonzalez. Drummer.
I play the drums, the triangle,
percussions, and the kettledrums.
If I can hit it, I can play it.
Understood, thank you.
Hmm.
Francisco Cecilio Zuleta III. What a name.
A virtuoso clarinetist.
Sara Baena.
Hm. You sing and dance.
That's right, professor.
Lina Machado? You also dance and...
Yeah, I dance, and I'm a lyrical singer.
A lyrical singer, very nice.
Let's hear a little verse.
All right, Pablo Castro.
Uh...
You have a good voice, keyboardist.
- But you like engineering, right?
- Yes, professor.
Ah, very good.
And Amalia Latorre.
It says you have a beautiful voice.
What do you play?
I play the guitar and the trumpet,
but this year I'd like to play the bass.
Nice, we could always use a bassist.
Very good then.
Eh... John Pablo Piñeres. Papiyón.
Yeah, Papiyón.
And what is your instrument?
♪ The prof asks me what instrument I play
I think for a moment ♪
♪ And I answer right away
I smile with my mouth, he sees my teeth ♪
♪ My instrument isn't played
It's created with the mind ♪
♪ That, my friends
Is what we call talent ♪
♪ Mental velocity, attitude with a story ♪
♪ They call it freestyle
Or at least the snobs do ♪
♪ But it's actually an ancient culture
Called just winging it ♪
Very good.
And the triplets? Let's see... Minerva?
First tambourine, professor.
- Mona?
- Second tambourine, professor.
Mariana?
Third tambourine, professor.
Very good, but the three of you
are coming to rehearsal, right?
Yes, professor.
Hmm.
Alegría, Romario.
Wow, you have a soccer star's name.
That's because
Yohan Alegría is my brother.
What a great goal he scored this morning.
Congratulations.
Alright, what instrument do you play?
The piano, professor.
The piano. But why didn't I see you
at the auditions?
Uh, because, well,
I prefer classical piano.
And we all know
that Kramer doesn't like it at all.
What's up, Papiyón?
You got something to say?
I don't, ask Romario,
maybe he's got something to add.
The thing is,
Romario plays the marimba de chonta,
but he's embarrassed to say it.
Romario, you play the marimba de chonta,
- but you're embarrassed to say it?
- Uh-huh.
Bring me the marimba.
Don't get too excited, professor.
Let me explain,
the marimba is one of the instruments
that are forbidden at this school.
You don't see them anywhere around here
because they aren't part
of the "success formula."
Romario, what did Mr. Kramer say
when you talked to him about it?
I told him he didn't need to buy one,
that my brother could bring me one.
And what did he say?
He gave me a look that made me
not want to ask him again.
We'll finish after the 25th.
Excuse me, how can I help you, professor?
I need some things for my students,
so I'll talk to Mr. Kramer.
Professor Kramer is busy right now
with Los Agudos.
I can help you
with an administrative matter if you need.
Take note, I need guitar strings
for the electric and bass guitars,
a drum head, some cymbals if possible,
three tambourines,
and a marimba de chonta.
A what?
A marimba de chonta,
it's a wooden xylophone.
Professor, I obviously know what it is.
It's made with peach palm wood,
where the peach palm fruit comes from.
It has a distinctive sound,
especially when accompanied
by a bass drum or a guasa.
- Currulaos, and the chirimias!
- No, no.
The principal would never allow
those types of instruments here.
What do you mean by "those types"?
You know, that type of music.
This is the first time
I've heard of musical hierarchy.
If you can't help me with the marimba,
at least help with the other stuff.
I thought you were gonna ask
for some markers,
or some paper, maybe some maracas.
But what you're asking for...
Look, professor, the instruments you got
are suitable for your students.
Instead of complaining
about what you don't have,
why not work with what you have?
Remember that a bad musician
always blames the instrument.
Best of luck.
Seriously?
♪ I'm not just a... ♪
No.
♪ I'm not just...
I'm not just a pretty face... ♪
♪ I'm... ♪
What's up, man?
What do you want?
What do I want?
The music's not bad, but...
I need you to send me
the rest of the lyrics.
I don't want to make a fool out of myself
by only having half of my song.
Your song?
Well, I mean...
you only have half of the song
because you've only paid me for half.
Stop being selfish.
Look, this is a collaboration.
You write the lyrics, and I sing them.
So collaborate with me,
and I'll give you the other half,
I don't have any problem with that.
It's all about money for you, isn't it?
Tomorrow, before class,
I'll have it for you.
Well then, I'll have it for you tomorrow,
before class.
Okay, bro.
I'm not calling about the match,
it's something much more important.
I got you a place at Munich High School
of Theater and Music.
What? Yony...
- But I'm not...
- Relax, big guy.
It's like the Ultranova Institute,
but a thousand times better.
You better come.
No, me over there? No!
Besides,
you know I don't even speak German.
Bro, you can learn the basics
in two months, the rest is just attitude.
You got plenty of that.
You see,
even the look on your face changed.
Okay, bro, don't be scared.
This is happening.
- Take care.
- You too, love you.
Hello!
Thank you.
Be careful, boys. Hello!
ULTRANOVA INSTITUTE
Of course. Come on over too!
You're all so sweet, thank you.
Can I take a picture with you?
Of course. Hey, I know you!
You're an incredible musician,
you were at the audition
for Los Agudos, weren't you?
You really saw me?
Yes. Hop in, come on.
Hey, did you really see me?
Bye. Of course.
At the audition for Los Agudos.
I play the clarinet,
and I started studying music
when I was five.
My dad, Pancho, is the first clarinet
for Los Armoniosos,
and my grandpa, Pancho senior,
founded the Armonicos of Colombia.
Wow, they selected you
to play for Los Agudos, right?
Hi!
Yeah, obviously.
But then they kicked you out.
Well, no.
I mean, I'm still the first stand-in,
you never know what could happen.
Panchito, the world is much bigger
than Ultranova.
Look.
I'm going to give you my card.
There's a lot of possibilities out there,
so many opportunities
for the world to recognize your talent.
My personal number is on here, call me.
Maybe you'll be a top musician someday,
who knows?
Thank you, for real. I'll call you.
Of course.
- Thanks, bye.
- Bye.
You're very talented.
Thank you, for real.
Sorry, my bad.

It's really shaping up,
you've got to admit it.
I bet you don't do anything like this
in Los Agudos, do you?
Um...
We're working on a song with Raphaelo
that's starting to sound really good.
What? The Raphaelo I know?
- Raphaelo.
- Yeah, I had the same look on my face
when they told me it was Raphaelo,
I thought of the worst.
But, Lala, you wouldn't believe
his singing voice,
and the lyrics, and...
Um-hm.
Let's see, come here.
Do I notice a change in your attitude
towards Raphaelo?
Well...
- I'm fine.
- Don't tell me you have a crush on him.
- Can I help you with anything?
- Yeah, man.
I have a high-priority delivery for Mr...
Amaranto Molina, that's me.
I got it, Peter.
- Sign here.
- No problem.
- There we go, thanks.
- Your last name is Brinez, right?
You've got a good memory.
- Manuel.
- Yes. Three more boxes, I'll get them.
One, two...
It's a shame, but I have to remind you
not to deliver your mail to the school.
- No, Peter...
- No, you don't need to explain yourself.
Just thank me,
I won't say anything to the principal.
Don't let it happen again.
What I need is someone
to help me carry these boxes.
Hey.
I didn't think you were coming.
I came with my dad,
I needed to get him off my back.
Come on, I'm in a hurry.
Hurry up, then. Hand over the cash.
Need a hand?
No, Romario.
- I'll make seven trips, and I'm good.
- Nah, come on.
- We'll help you out.
- Don't worry, professor.
We'll help you out.
Don't worry about it.
The police!
I knew I'd seen you somewhere before.
I was a cop for 10 years,
you were a cop, weren't you?
What department were you in?
No, I didn't even do military service.
Don't say that, professor,
we'll think the worst.
If you weren't in the force,
I must have arrested you, then.
Ocampo, stop bothering the professor,
give me a hand instead.
I'm just kidding, professor.
- Let me give you a hand.
- No, don't worry.
- Are you sure?
- Yeah, don't worry.
We'll take this box then.
- Which one, this big one?
- Yeah.
- Could you tell us where you were?
- Sorry, Dad.
I was just finishing up the second verse.
Let's see.
Ah, okay.
Good, I knew that
you wouldn't disappoint me this time.
You are a Kramer, after all.
Okay, Agudos.
Listen and learn.

Not bad.
Well, my dear Graves,
I need you to get
the damaged old instruments
and take them to the other side
of the room, over there,
to Kramer's instrument cemetery.
So these are new instruments, then?
I don't know.
But let's go.
It's about time we got new microphones.
They're in bad shape.
Hurry up.
That's good.
Okay, now you can begin unpacking.
That could be, I don't know...
Hey, Lala, check this out.
Help me set this up.
Professor, it's break time.
- Let's go?
- Yeah, I'm hungry.
- Let's go, Roma.
- Bye, professor, thank you.
Are you messing with me?
- Always.
- Lala.
Yeah, let's go.
Thanks.
Okay, everybody, this is just rehearsal.
The real thing will be on Music Day.
But it's helpful for us
to practice in front of an audience,
and all of you can learn from the best.
Dardo!

No touching, let's get in position.
Everyone to their places.
Roma.
Take it away.
Hey, professor. For real?
Go for it.
Play it! Play it!
Professor.
You've outdone yourself.
How nice.
No!
- Duh.
- But who posted that?
- Let's see.
- Hey...
Do you guys hear that?
Kind of like a vibraphone?
I don't know,
but it sounds really cool. Let's go.
Wait. Where are you going?
Cami, Martina, Dardo, Raphaelo, sit down.
We have to wait for Kramer.
Kramer isn't coming until after the break.
- Let's go!
- I want to go too!
- No!
- I love it!
The Pitere.
- What are you doing?
- Nothing.
What do you mean "nothing"? Stay still.
What's that sound?
What is that jungle noise?
Do you have anything to do with this?
Me? No. How could you say such a thing?
Ah, okay.
I thought you were in charge of everything
that comes in and out
of this school, right?
All right, silence!
Silence!
Silence!
Who brought this into my school?
Ha?
And what are all of you doing here?
Back to class!
- Peter, take care of this.
- Yes, come on, it's for the best.
No, wait a moment.
You stay right there, professor.
Professor Molina.
As a humanitarian,
I believe that we need to help out
people in need.
And you, professor,
look like you're clearly in need.
If there's anything I can't stand,
it's a breach of trust,
and you need to appreciate
that breaching trust in this school
must be paid dearly.
It's not a breach of trust, Mr. Kramer.
I tried carrying out my duties
as a music professor as best I could.
To overstep your duties is the same
as not fulfilling them.
This act of sabotage
puts in danger the standards that I seek
and require of my institution.
It's not sabotage, Mr. Kramer.
The marimba de chonta
is an instrument just like any other.
And we were making music.
Sure, you want us to make music?
Well, listen to this tune.
When you first got here,
I thought you were an ally.
But no.
After what you've done,
I've realized that you are my enemy.
Peter!
Help me deal with this pile of firewood.
No, that marimba belongs to Romario.
- I bought it for him.
- "I bought it for him."
Nothing wrong here. No problem.
All good here.
Accidents can happen to anyone, right?
It's all good. Well, it doesn't matter.
Oh, I almost forgot, professor.
You're suspended for a week.
You, unruly kids,
have the rest of the day off.
You can leave.
And you, Peter, will fill in
as the substitute for Los Graves
for the week, okay?
Me?
But, professor... Principal...
You know that my function here
is strictly administrative.
Do you really think
you are in a position to give your opinion
after what you've done today?
It would be an honor
to take on this new challenge, principal.
I'm very glad.
Peter, one more thing. This?
It goes straight to the bonfire.
Good day, professor.

Be careful, boys. Hello!
ULTRANOVA INSTITUTE
Of course. Come on over too!
You're all so sweet, thank you.
Can I take a picture with you?
Of course. Hey, I know you!
You're an incredible musician,
you were at the audition
for Los Agudos, weren't you?
You really saw me?
Yes. Hop in, come on.
Hey, did you really see me?
Bye. Of course.
At the audition for Los Agudos.
I play the clarinet,
and I started studying music
when I was five.
My dad, Pancho, is the first clarinet
for Los Armoniosos,
and my grandpa, Pancho senior,
founded the Armonicos of Colombia.
Wow, they selected you
to play for Los Agudos, right?
Hi!
Yeah, obviously.
But then they kicked you out.
Well, no.
I mean, I'm still the first stand-in,
you never know what could happen.
Panchito, the world is much bigger
than Ultranova.
Look.
I'm going to give you my card.
There's a lot of possibilities out there,
so many opportunities
for the world to recognize your talent.
My personal number is on here, call me.
Maybe you'll be a top musician someday,
who knows?
Thank you, for real. I'll call you.
Of course.
- Thanks, bye.
- Bye.
You're very talented.
Thank you, for real.
Sorry, my bad.

It's really shaping up,
you've got to admit it.
I bet you don't do anything like this
in Los Agudos, do you?
Um...
We're working on a song with Raphaelo
that's starting to sound really good.
What? The Raphaelo I know?
- Raphaelo.
- Yeah, I had the same look on my face
when they told me it was Raphaelo,
I thought of the worst.
But, Lala, you wouldn't believe
his singing voice,
and the lyrics, and...
Um-hm.
Let's see, come here.
Do I notice a change in your attitude
towards Raphaelo?
Well...
- I'm fine.
- Don't tell me you have a crush on him.
- Can I help you with anything?
- Yeah, man.
I have a high-priority delivery for Mr...
Amaranto Molina, that's me.
I got it, Peter.
- Sign here.
- No problem.
- There we go, thanks.
- Your last name is Brinez, right?
You've got a good memory.
- Manuel.
- Yes. Three more boxes, I'll get them.
One, two...
It's a shame, but I have to remind you
not to deliver your mail to the school.
- No, Peter...
- No, you don't need to explain yourself.
Just thank me,
I won't say anything to the principal.
Don't let it happen again.
What I need is someone
to help me carry these boxes.
Hey.
I didn't think you were coming.
I came with my dad,
I needed to get him off my back.
Come on, I'm in a hurry.
Hurry up, then. Hand over the cash.
Need a hand?
No, Romario.
- I'll make seven trips, and I'm good.
- Nah, come on.
- We'll help you out.
- Don't worry, professor.
We'll help you out.
Don't worry about it.
The police!
I knew I'd seen you somewhere before.
I was a cop for 10 years,
you were a cop, weren't you?
What department were you in?
No, I didn't even do military service.
Don't say that, professor,
we'll think the worst.
If you weren't in the force,
I must have arrested you, then.
Ocampo, stop bothering the professor,
give me a hand instead.
I'm just kidding, professor.
- Let me give you a hand.
- No, don't worry.
- Are you sure?
- Yeah, don't worry.
We'll take this box then.
- Which one, this big one?
- Yeah.
- Could you tell us where you were?
- Sorry, Dad.
I was just finishing up the second verse.
Let's see.
Ah, okay.
Good, I knew that
you wouldn't disappoint me this time.
You are a Kramer, after all.
Okay, Agudos.
Listen and learn.

Well, my dear Graves,
I need you to get
the damaged old instruments
and take them to the other side
of the room, over there,
to Kramer's instrument cemetery.
So these are new instruments, then?
I don't know.
But let's go.
It's about time we got new microphones.
They're in bad shape.
Hurry up.
That's good.
Okay, now you can begin unpacking.
That could be, I don't know...
Hey, Lala, check this out.
Help me set this up.
Professor, it's break time.
- Let's go?
- Yeah, I'm hungry.
- Let's go, Roma.
- Bye, professor, thank you.
Are you messing with me?
- Always.
- Lala.
Yeah, let's go.
Thanks.
Okay, everybody, this is just rehearsal.
The real thing will be on Music Day.
But it's helpful for us
to practice in front of an audience,
and all of you can learn from the best.
Dardo!

Those lyrics reminded me
of your improvisation.
They wish they had my lyrics.
No, no touching, please.
No touching, let's get in position.
Everyone to their places.
Roma.
Take it away.
Hey, professor. For real?
Go for it.
Play it! Play it!
Professor.
You've outdone yourself.
How nice.
No!
- Duh.
- But who posted that?
- Let's see.
- Hey...
Do you guys hear that?
Kind of like a vibraphone?
I don't know,
but it sounds really cool. Let's go.
Wait. Where are you going?
Cami, Martina, Dardo, Raphaelo, sit down.
We have to wait for Kramer.
Kramer isn't coming until after the break.
- Let's go!
- I want to go too!
- No!
- I love it!
The Pitere.
- What are you doing?
- Nothing.
What do you mean "nothing"? Stay still.
What's that sound?
What is that jungle noise?
Do you have anything to do with this?
Me? No. How could you say such a thing?
Ah, okay.
I thought you were in charge of everything
that comes in and out
of this school, right?
All right, silence!
Silence!
Silence!
Who brought this into my school?
Ha?
And what are all of you doing here?
Back to class!
- Peter, take care of this.
- Yes, come on, it's for the best.
No, wait a moment.
You stay right there, professor.
Professor Molina.
As a humanitarian,
I believe that we need to help out
people in need.
And you, professor,
look like you're clearly in need.
If there's anything I can't stand,
it's a breach of trust,
and you need to appreciate
that breaching trust in this school
must be paid dearly.
It's not a breach of trust, Mr. Kramer.
I tried carrying out my duties
as a music professor as best I could.
To overstep your duties is the same
as not fulfilling them.
This act of sabotage
puts in danger the standards that I seek
and require of my institution.
It's not sabotage, Mr. Kramer.
The marimba de chonta
is an instrument just like any other.
And we were making music.
Sure, you want us to make music?
Well, listen to this tune.
When you first got here,
I thought you were an ally.
But no.
After what you've done,
I've realized that you are my enemy.
Peter!
Help me deal with this pile of firewood.
No, that marimba belongs to Romario.
- I bought it for him.
- "I bought it for him."
Nothing wrong here. No problem.
All good here.
Accidents can happen to anyone, right?
It's all good. Well, it doesn't matter.
Oh, I almost forgot, professor.
You're suspended for a week.
You, unruly kids,
have the rest of the day off.
You can leave.
And you, Peter, will fill in
as the substitute for Los Graves
for the week, okay?
Me?
But, professor... Principal...
You know that my function here
is strictly administrative.
Do you really think
you are in a position to give your opinion
after what you've done today?
It would be an honor
to take on this new challenge, principal.
I'm very glad.
Peter, one more thing. This?
It goes straight to the bonfire.
Good day, professor.
